Armor Achilla. Achilles (Achilles), the greatest Greek hero in the Trojan War. Myths about Achille
Jupiter, the father of the gods, one day without memory fell in love with the beautiful sea nymph named Fetid, who was a daughter of spawning and dorid.
Sredid fetis,(Homer)
Daughter of the gray god of the seas.
He really wanted to make her his wife, but before making such an important step, decided to consult with the goddes of fate, for only they could tell him if this marriage would be happy. And he did the right thing, because all three sisters told him that Fetide was destined to become a mother's mother who will surpresent his father.
Jupiter revealed this answer and decided to abandon marriage, because he did not want to give the power to the one who would be stronger than him. He stated that Fetis will be the wife of Pelish, the king of the Fty, who passionately loved her and had long sought her favor.
Fetide, however, did not want to become a simple mortal wife after her gods gave her attention (for Neptune also cared for her).
She refused to marry a pestia until Jupiter promised that all the gods with him at the chapter would be on her wedding feast. The promise of this honor satisfied the girl, and in the coral reefs of her father, spawning, in the depths of the ocean began to prepare for the wedding.
The feast was in full swing when Jupiter appeared with the hero and all the other Gods of Olympus.
With his spouse king of all gods(Katul)
With the Olympic gave heights.
And behind him and all other gods.
Guests took their own places and raised the health of the bridegroom and the bride of the bowl with sparkling wine - a wedding gift fetide. The fun was in full swing, as unwanted guest appeared in the feast hall. All immediately recognized Erida (discordia, at), the goddess of contention, which was not invited to a wedding because of her serpentic curls, a gloomy and grumpy character.
Terrible, came without inviting(Tennison)
At the wedding of Pefia, where the gods were poured.
Apple of discord
Having learned that she was not invited, Erid was angry and decided to take revenge, violating the consent that reigned among the guests. She stood on the table lomed from the poultry, and then she threw a golden apple on him and, filling the air to poisonous breathing, disappeared. But everyone looked at her, but on the Golden Apple, on which the inscription was clearly visible: "The Great".
All ladies wanted to participate in the competition, but then, one after another, they refused this thought. Only Juno, Minerva and Venus fiercely argued, who should get a precious prize. Juno stated that the prize should belong to her - the Queen of the Gods in all its greatness and power. Minerva also argued that the beauty of the soul and wisdom exceeds the external beauty, and Venus smiled mockingly and said that to whom, as not the goddess of beauty, to own such a prize.
The dispute flared up and stronger and stronger, and the annoyed goddesses turned to the crowd with a request to award the apple the most worthy, but guests, everything as one, refused to do this, perfectly realizing that the apple would get alone, and the other two wrap their anger and revenge on Who dares to get around them. Finally, it was decided that the prize would inherent in Paris, the son of Priama and Hoxta, Tsar and Troy Queen, who pass herds in the mountains and knew nothing about her high origin.
Being a baby, Paris was attributed to the mountains and was abandoned there on the mercy of fate, as Oracle predicted that he would cause the death of his family and destruction of his hometown. But the boy found and raised a simple shepherd. Becoming adults, Paris also became a shepherd.
He was extremely beautiful and managed to inspire the love of Enon, a charming nymph with which he entered into a secret marriage. But their happiness was short-lived, because the goddes of fate predicted that the love of Paris to Enon would soon fade.
And parks,(Quint Smirnsky)
Performing the will of Zeus,
They interrupted their love.
Instead of returning to a beautiful nymph, Paris climbed to the top of the mountain, where the three goddesses waited for his decisions. The first in front of him appeared Minerva in sparkling armor and promised to reward him with wisdom, if he gives her an apple.
But he immediately forgot about the promises of Minerva and Juno, when Venus arose to him with her magic belt. Her outfit and hairstyle were thought out to the smallest detail.
With a hairstyle half a day she fed,(Cowber)
Until satisfied left, finally.
She trembles from fear that all her efforts will be in vain, she quietly approached Paris and a gentle voice promised him that if he would inherent the cherished apple to her, she would give him a bride, not inferior to her with her beauty.
Conquered by the extraordinary beauty of Venus, and maybe, seduced by a promise, Paris dropped all doubts and put her apple in her hand.
Not allowing to finish, he extended(Salt)
She is fruitful with gilding.
And a tender hand grabbed the prize -
Bloody slaughter seed fatal.
This decision of Paris, of course, brought the hatred and anger of Juno and Minerves to him, who began to wait for the right moment to take revenge. Celebrating Venus, grief desire to fulfill his promise, ordered Paris to go to Troy, to open his parents - who, as she promised, will take him with open arms, and to equip the fleet on which he had to go to Greece.
Performing her will, Paris ruthlessly threw a beautiful loyal enon and, joining the group of young shepherds, went to Troy, saying he wants to attend the holiday. Here he took part in the competition, won a lot of victories and attracted the attention of his sister Cassandra. This princess was famous for his beauty, they say that the Apollo himself even cared for her, who, wanting to conquer her love, endowed Kassandra the gift of prophecy. However, the girl did not reciprocate the feeling of Apollo, and, without having to deprive her magic gift, he did so that no one believed her prophets.
Cassandra pointed to parents to the extraordinary similarity of Paris with her brothers, and then, fell into the prophetic trance, predicted that this young man would destroy his hometown. But the priest and heads laughed at her words and happily accepted the returned son. They settled it in their palace and, wanting to change the blame in front of him, promised to fulfill any of his desire.
Listening to the words of Venus, who undertook to lead them, Paris expressed the desire to go to Greece, allegedly in order to save the Hesion, sister's father, from Hercules's hands, who took her with him after the siege of Troy. He immediately provided a few gallery, and Paris soon appeared at the courtyard of Meal, the king Sparta, whose young wife, Elena, was the most beautiful woman in the world, if you believe the evidence of contemporaries.
We are all the same as she, we competed with her,(Foocriton (per. M.E. Grabar Parseck))
Near Evrotskaya Pupil, like a young man in oil
We are sixty-four - we are young women's pigs, -
There is not a single immaculate environment of us compared to Elena.
Like a shining face of Almighty Night,
Like the parish of radiant spring, that winter drives out,
Also, between all of us girlfriends Golden Shial Elena.
Lush bread crop - decoration of fertile fields,
Pride of gardens - cypress, chariots - Fessealie horses,
The fame of Lakefemon - with the ruddy Skin Elena.
Elena fans
The daughter of Jupiter and Ice (behind which the king of the gods cared in the guise of a snow-white swan), Elena had many fans who were dusty to achieve her love. The most noble, the most brave and smart were the palace of her stepfather, hoping to achieve her hands, but it was not possible to anyone. Elena did not show preferences to anyone and refused to declare who she would like to see her husband.
Tendandarey, stepfather of Elena, fearing, no matter how rejected warshers did not want to steal her with her husband, whom she one day still chooses himself, offered to all seekers her hands conclude an agreement that they undertake to respect the elected rights, and if anyone Decides to steal her, help him return his wife.
Father of the beautiful Virgin Tendardy(Euripid)
Could not decide who to give
In spouses your daughter, Elena,
Not lost on this; finally,
He decided that her fans
Turning the rite ordinary, swore,
That will not refuse to help
Who will be a virgin Elena husband.
And if someone decides to kidnap her
Il her husband with a fastener to drive
Then they all unite the effort
And the city of the kidnapper - it does not matter
Hellenic or barbaric - demolish
From the face of the earth and grasply will punish.
The agreement was concluded, and Elena finally agreed to become the wife of Menel, the King Sparta.
Elena abduction
Arriving in Sparta, Paris was hospitably accepted by Menel and Elena. Soon after his arrival, the king was summoned on business, and he left, commissioning his wife to entertain her royal guest. During his absence, Paris, incited by Venus, began to take care of Elena and achieved her consent to flee with him. Paris, triumph, brought her to Troy.
From the house of the husband, where he was accepted in the royal(Salt)
He took away Elena, he was on foamy waves.
Meneli, returning from Crete, discovered the absence of his wife and swore that he would not calm down until he was returning to Elena and dismiss the offender. In all directions, the messengers were sent to the former fans of Elena about their promise, and reported that Meneli is waiting for them in an unlide with people and weapons. The call was all except Ulysses, the king of Italian, who, wanting to comfort after the refusal of Elena, married her cousin Penelope and dreamed only about one thing - to live next to her and raise the baby's baby named Temac.
When Menal's messenger came to him, he pretended to be crazy, hoping to avoid a hike in Troy, but the messenger was not so easy to fool. The messenger came up with a plan that would help him establish the truth. Once, when Ulysses paked Sea Coast with the help of a plow, who was dragged by the Wola and Horse, harmed together to fall asleep the unusual field of salt, Palamned put in the groove of Telemaca, right along the passage of the plow, and noted to himself, how neatly the king tramcled the baby. Palamed realized that the king was in the right mind, and forced him to submit to the requirement of Menel.
The army of the army unanimously chose Agamemnon, the brother Meal, his leader. Among the warriors were Nestor, famous for his wisers, Ajax, Giant forces and courage, and Diomed, the famous warrior.
The army gathered, the vessels were equipped on the road, but before saving, the commander decided to consult with Oracle to know that they were waiting for - victory or defeat. Oracle answered, as always, very foggy. From his response, the Greeks realized that they would not take her three without the help of the son of Pelle and Fetold, Achilla, who was predicted by the goddes of fate, that he would surpass his father.
Hero Achilles
Fetida loved her only son so much that he was swimming in the waters of stycles, which could turn all parts of the human body, which they touched, in invulnerable. Understanding that her son is destined to become a great warrior and constantly expose her life to danger, Fetis lowered him in the waters of stycase entirely, holding a heel.
After some time, Oracle predicted that Achille would die under the walls of the wound in the heel - the only vulnerable site on his body. The shed a lot of tears, Fetis swore that the son would never leave her, and instructed his concerns of the Centaurian Hiron, who was trained in turn of all Heroes of Eldla.
From his mentor Achille learned to military art, wrestling, poetry, music and singing - the Word, and when the Greek Warrior had to know, and when the study ended, returned to the Father's yard to please his mother.
But the joy of Fetyda soon changed the grief - her ears reached rumors about the preparing war of Greece with Troy. She knew that her son would also call soon, and in order to prevent his care, sent him to the court of Licked, where he changed into a female dress and was mixed with the crowd of servants of the royal daughters.
The Greeks sent one messenger after another to encourage Achilla to join them, but they were returned, and not seeing him and not knowing where he hid. No matter how eager the Greeks want to sail to the walls of Troy, they did not decide to go to war without Achille. They were desperate, but here the cunning street suggested a plan of action and said that he would fulfill him.
Changed by a street trader and throwing a bag on his back with the goods, Ulysses came to the Licked Palace, where, as he assumed, the Achilles hides, and laid his goods. The girls rushed to buy decorations, and one of them, tightly wrapped in the bedspread, grabbed the sword, hidden among the baubles, and began to wake themselves with such skill that Ulysses realized that in front of him Achilles. He explained the young man, why came here, and, putting all his eloquence into the move, convinced him to go with him in Avlude.
Now everything was ready for sailing, but I had to wait for the passing wind, which would be filled with sails, lifelessly hung on masts.
The troops gathered, everything was ready,(Euripid)
But for a long time we, inactivity, in Avlida,
The passing wind was waiting.
Victim of infigration
Then the Greeks appealed to Kalhas again, to the future, and he told them that they should earn the mercy of the gods. The gods stated that they would not send to the courts of passing wind, until they were sacrificed to the sacrifice, the daughter of Agamemnon.
A lot of other ways were tried to pull out the gods, but nothing helped, and then Agamemenon, prompted by His colleagues, sent for her daughter, worked to convey to her that he wanted to celebrate her engagement with Achille.
Then I wrote and sealed(Euripid)
Letter to his wife, Weling her to her
Mostly sent here to our daughter -
The bride is set by Achilla.
Iphygeni came to the Father, rejoicing in the soul, which will be the bride of the famous hero, but she was not led to the Altar of Gimenta, but to the altar, where the priest was already waiting for her with a sharp knife. But at that moment Diana appeared, shrouded the girl the cloud and took it into Tavrid, where she became priestess in her temple. Instead of infidation, Lan's gods were sacrificed, which Diana replaced the girl.
The gods were satisfied, and soon faced the backway wind. He filled the sails of ships and drove them to the shores of Troy, where the troops were already gathered to prevent the Greeks to land ashore. The invaders were eager to step up to the ground to be measured with the forces with the Trojans, but no one wanted to go first, as Oracle predicted that the one who was the first to stop the land of Troy, would die immediately.
Oracle predicted that the first warrior,(Wordsworth)
Descended from the ship to the coast of Troy,
Perolits the same moment.
Testales and Laudamia
Brave Testales, seeing the indecision of his comrades and inspired by the thought of self-sacrifice, bravely jumped from the ship ashore and immediately died, struggled by a spear of the enemy, cost only his leg to touch someone else's land. When rumors about his death reached the beloved wife of Lodamia, which he left in Fessiona, her heart crashed from grief, and she began to tend to give her death in despair or allow her husband to once again to see her husband, at least for a moment. Her prayers touched the gods, and they ordered Mercury to bring a dressed up to the land, where he was allowed to spend three hours in the wife of his wife.
Your Molver is heard,(Wordsworth)
About Lodania! By the will of Zeus
Your husband leaving the gloomy Gudes,
Going to you. He is yours for three hours.
Accept the gift of gods and hug it.
Laudamia screamed from joy, seeing his beloved husband. He told her about why he died. Three hours flew unnoticed, and when Mercury appeared, to hover in Gades, a faithful wife, unable to part with him forever, died of grief.
They say that the spouses were buried in one grave, and good nymphs planted Vyazy over her.
These trees grew until the Troy was visible from them, and when they were cut down, then new branches rose on the stump.
The Greeks landed ashore, and the battles immediately began. Both troops were equal in strength and courage. Long nine years have tried to take the Greeks to Troy, or Ilion, as it was also called, but unsuccessfully. But the Trojans could not drive the enemy from under the walls of the city. This unforgettable war was singing in many poems. The most ancient and most famous was "Iliad", which begins with the description of the events of the tenth, the last year of the war.
Chryside and Brisoid
Among the prisoners taken in the battles of Hellen, there were two adorable girls, Chryside, Daughter of Christ, Priests in the temple of Apollo, and Brispe. Captransmen, as was customary in those days, were given to leaders. Agamemnon received a reward for the courage of the daughter of the priest, and Achill solemnly introduced into his tent no less beautiful Brisade.
When Christ learned that his daughter got into the hands of the enemy, he hurried to Tent Agamemnon and offered a big redemption for her, but Molba of the elderly father did not touch the hearts of the Greeks, and he left, squeezed by ridicule. Restricted with cruel appeal, he made his hands to the sky and began to begging Apollon to take revenge for an insult to him, a terrible disease in the Greeks. God heard his request and wrapped on the army of the terrible Mor.
... and the old man trembles and, the word king conjugates(Homer. Iliad)
It goes, silent, on the run unfulfilled the puchin.
There, from the courts, we fell, the elder prayed sad
FEBOU KING, Lepocastry Letya Casual Son:
"God Srebroluky, Missed me: Oh you, that, storing, go around
Christ, the sacred kille and powerfully reigning in Tendos ...
... Hear and felt one glance:
Tears are my aventh of the Argives Arrells! "
Greeks rushed to the oracle in horror to find out why there was such a terrible car and how they can be stopped by Mor who mowed their ranks like grass. Oracle said that the plague will be stopped only when Agamemenon returns her captive her father. Only after that, Apollo will change his anger to the mercy, which was caused by the gross refusal of the Greeks to the elderly father of Chricree.
All Greek leaders gathered to the Council decided to send Achilla to Agamemnon so that he gives him a request to liberate Christide. Agamemenon immediately agreed to fulfill the demand of the leaders, but with the condition that in exchange for Chryside he will receive Brispe.
Make in the Greek camp rapidly very stronger - the air was full of shouts of the suffering, many warriors had already carried out inglorious death, and others were waiting for her approach with horror. Achilles, seeing all this and wanting to save the sinks of the favorite comrades, agreed to fulfill this arrogance demand, but he swore that if Agamemnon takes him a brickwide, he would no longer receive participation in the battles.
Chryside immediately passed to herald, who took her to his father. Hispanic appealed to Apollon with a request to forgive the Greeks, and the Mor immediately stopped.
As for Agamemnon, he sent Achilla's tent for Brysida, and the hero put aside a weapon in the direction, not wanting to fight more.
Zeusov Pet, Pelide Achilles, Figgy Ristator,(Homer)
Was not already in the advice, husbands decorating glory,
Was neither terrible battles crushing the heart sad
Celebrated sitting, but the soul of Alcal he and Brass and the fight.
Fetida, having learned what an insult to be applied to her son, left her coral cave, rose to Olympus, rushed to the legs of Jupiter and began to be revengent for Achilla with tears. Let the Greeks fail in all their endeavors until the anger of her son is crazy.
Races Trojan Gradi Being, Dococol Ahaeis(Homer)
Son to honor will not be presented and he will not be credited.
Jupiter, touched by grief of beautiful fetis, frowning, listened to her and swore that the Greeks would still regret the day when they left their native shores.
Jupiter sent Agamemnon's a dream in which it was causally promised to give him a victory over the Troy, and the Greek leader gathered his troops and took a new attempt to take Troy. When the troops agreed on the battlefield, Hector came out, the eldest son of Priama and the leader of the Trojans, and suggested solving a prolonged argument to the fight between Paris and Menel.
And Hector Great broadcast among the militarys:(Homer)
"Suns of Troyan and Aheyan are beautiful! Look
What does Paris offer, from which Brank wrapped.
He offers Trojans and all medial aheitsam
Rolling sabs to put on the cluster land;
Himself in the midst of militias with warlike
Battle, one on one, for Elena wishes to fight.
Who of two will win and turn out to be clearly stronger
In the house and Elena will introduce, and the treasures will all get,
We put the sacred oaths for mutual friendship. "
This proposal arranged everyone, and soon Paris and Meneli agreed in a fight, followed by both Rati, Elena and Priam from the walls of Troy, as well as immortal gods with forests covered by the forests of Mounta. But at the midst of the fight Venus, seeing that her favorite would be - so defeated, unexpectedly grabbed him and carried him off the battlefield in his room, where he was found by Elena and began to cruelly rooted for a shameful flight.
Restricted by the intervention of Venus, the gods decided that the war would be revived with a new force, and Minerva, having accepted the appearance of the Trojan Warrior, let him go to Meal, who was confusedly looking around, looking for his missing opponent, a treacherous arrow. This cunning strike served as a signal to resume the battle. The war flared up with a new force. Heroes of both armies committed wonders of courage. The gods also took part in the battles - they mixed with the ranks of the warring and sometimes even beat each other while Jupiter dismantled them and did not forbid themselves in hostilities.
For some time, Grekam was accompanied by luck, and Hector, having hurried in Troy, ordered her mother with all her servants to go to the temple and prayers and gifts to try to be melted to Minerva and achieve her help. Then he rushed in search of his wife Andromaha, who wanted to say goodbye before going to the battle, where he could have been waiting for death.
Hector and Andromaha
Without finding it in the palace, he asked the maids and found out that his wife went to the Skier gate, where he was mercilessly puzzling horses, and rushed. Here, at the gate, a scene of farewell occurred, which can be called the most touching in the whole "oriad" without exaggeration. Andromach tried in vain to keep her husband in the city. Hector gently reinforced her, proving that his place - on the battlefield, in the thick battles, if he does not want their city to be in the hands of the enemy, the Trojans were interrupted, and women, including his mother and a beltenious Andromaha, were taken into slavery.
Beside him Androma stood, lingering tears,(Homer)
The hand shook him and such words said:
"Husband amazing, your courage is destroyed! Not a son
You do not regret the baby, nor the poor mother; soon
I will be a widow, unhappy! Soon you are Argivyan,
Together attack, kill! And to you abandoned, Hector,
It is better for me to go to the ground; No me will be a fade
If, fastned by rock, you will leave me: my lot -
Sorrow! I have no father nor mother gentle!
.
Hector, you all now - both Father, and a kind of mother,
You and my brother is the only one, you and my spouse!
You need to be shredded by me and stay with us on the tower,
Son do not make you siema, spouses do not make a widow. "
She was answered by the famous, glittering Hector:
"Everything and me, the spouse, no less disturbing, but terrible
Shame to me before each Trojan and Long-Build Trojan,
If, like a timid, I will stay here, removing from the fight! "
After that, he handed his hands to the baby, but he renewed, frightened the sparkling helmet and the feathers swinging on it. Only after Hector took off his helmet, the son went to his hands. After passionate prayer about the well-being of his heir, Hector gave Andromache's son and hugging her finally, jumped into the chariot and twisted.
Good! The heart is not a burst of unlimited sorrow.(Homer)
Against the fate of me, I will not send me to Aides;
But fate, as I Many, do not avoid any earthmovic
Husband, neither courageous, nor a timid, as soon as he will be born.
The marching, kind, to the house, to take care of their affairs;
Fabric wearing yarn, order homemade wives
It's a matter to correct; And the war - the husbands concern
All, most of me, in Ilion sacred born.
Paris, dying his flight, soon joined his brother on the battlefield, and together they made many feats. It's time for Jupiter to fulfill the promise given by fetide, and the Greeks began to retreat little. Trojans, inspired by their successes and inspired by the example of Hector, fought as lions and managed, finally discard the enemies to their trenches.
Death and failures followed in the footsteps of the Greeks, pushed by inches in an inch of the walls of Troy, they approached the place where their vessels stood. How they regret now that there were no Achilles with them, one presence of which in the old days filled the hearts of enemies with horror! But the hero, although he returned to the Brisade, was deaf to the plenty of help and looked at his compatriots indifferently. And the Trojans meanwhile began to wait for the ships.
The Greeks fell in spirit and, despite the desperate resistance, they decided that the gods from them turned away. Then they rushed to run ashore, pursued by the Trojans, who shouted loudly from joy.
Then the Patrole, the son of the Mesetia, one of the satellites of Jason, and the best friend of Achilla, rushed to him to tell about the defeat of his comrades and persuade him to save them from imminent death. But Achilles, calling for help all his pride, refused to help the Greeks. Then the Patrole remembered that one just look at the Armor of Achille is able to stop the enemy and give the Greeks time to come to Himself, and asked permission to put on them and the story of Mimmidonyan, Achille's soldier, in battle.
Together, you let me go to the battle and impet me my Mirmidonyan:(Homer)
Maybe with the help of them for Damaev Light I will.
Give the ram to go to your weapons nice:
Maybe in Brass me for you taking, Trojan
The battle will stop, and Danay warriors in the field will rest
The battle is already exhausted; Rest in battles of brief.
We, the militia of fresh, rails, intense a fight,
Easy to reflect the courts and from the Seine of Ahasey.
Yes, Achille swore, he would never return to the battlefield, but he gladly agreed to give a friend of people and armor, hoping that they would help the Greeks. Patrox quickly put on sparkling lats, loudly shouted with Mimdonians, so that they walked behind him, and rushed into a thick combat.
The Trojans stopped, thinking that in front of them Achille, and gathered already to turn to flight, as they realized that it was not ahill. With new forces, they rushed to the Greeks. Many heroes flew in that battle, among them Sarpedon, Son of Jupiter and Europe. His body was carried out from the battlefield of the Blendies with the twins and death, before Hector, the son of Priama and the leader of the Trojans, called the Patrole to the duel. Is it worth saying which fierce fight broke out between them. Both of them fought bravely and persistently, until, finally, Patrole, tired, and devoted to the gods, did not fall dead.
With a loud cry of joy, Hector ripped off the breathless body armor and quickly retired to put on them. Rumors about the death of Patrole quickly scattered in the Greek camp and reached the ears of Achille, who, having learned that his beloved friend, who had recently left him, no full strength and energy, no longer, buried from grief. His sobs were so loud that Fetis had heard them in the depths of the ocean and hurried to her son to find out what was the matter.
Ahill told his mother about his grief, and she tried to convince him to do something safer than war. But all her efforts were in vain, for the soul of Achille Alkal Vesti, and he was not tired of repeating, which would certainly dismiss the killer of his friend.
... for and my heart does not tell me(Homer)
Live in society to be human, if Hector,
The first, my spear amazed, the soul will not cast
And for the robbery over the cartridge, I will not pay for me!
Armor Achilla
Then suddenly, frightened that heker will kill someone else or he will no longer appear on the battlefield and thereby avoids his revenge, Ahill almost jumped out of the tent without a lat, but the mother convinced him to wait until the morning. She promised him to bring new armor, made by the Hand of the Volcano himself. Thille thinking, she moved to Mount Etna from the banks of Malaya Asia, where the villager of the volcano was located.
God, covered later, finds in the works, before furs,(Homer)
Quickly rotating: twenty tripods suddenly he worked
In the utensils put to the wall of his spray home.
Appearing in front of him, Fetida outlined his request, and the God of Fire promised her that by the morning the armor will be ready, and immediately began to work. His skillful hands were formed wonderful lats, and when he cut the horizon over the horizon, he gave them to a fetide, who hurried to the Son's tent, where he found him still mourning the death of Patrole.
While the fetis was absent, the deaths came to Achille, which told him that his friend's body is still in the hands of the enemy, and begged to rescue the corpse from captivity. Remembering the promise, a given mother, Achill refused to enter into battle, but by climbing on the shaft, published his mighty combat cry, from which the enemies shook from horror. Here Ajax and Diomed were attacked on them and, thoroughing the Trojans, took possession of the body of the Patrole, which with respect to the tent of Achilla.
Hoping to console the Son, Fetida showed him the luxurious armor, which she mined for him, helped put on them and ordered to go and defeat the Trojans.
My son! Let's leave the dead, no matter how sprinkling the heart,(Homer)
With peace lying; Almighty gods, he is defeated.
Get up and accept, Pylon, from Gefesta BELELEP,
Wondrous, which never shone in the world of human ramen.
The death of hekotor
Naughz Latvi, Achille sat in the chariot, in which his favorite horses were pronounced, and the Most devotee was devoted to him, and rushed into battle. Seeing the hector, with whom he sought to fight, Achilles rushed to him with a violent cry. Having freezing the burning hatred, glowing in the eyes of Achilla, the Trojan hero was started to flee. Achill pursued him, loudly mocking his cowardice. Finally, Hector stopped and with the insane courage of despair pounced on him.
The blows were poured by a hail, the cloud of dust enveloped the fighting, and surrounding their warriors heard only the stupid sounds of shocks and the metal ringing of the armor. Suddenly there was a loud cry, after which silence came. When dust was scattered, the Trojans gathered on the shafts, where they were horrified by the outcome of the fight, saw the Armor with their leader, attached his body to the chariot and nine times drove around the city walls, and proud hector's head beat about the road stones. Priam, Hekaba and Andromaha, Hector's wife, distraught from grief, looked at the owl of the body of his beloved son and her husband. Finally, Achill drove up to the place where the funeral bonfire was arranged, and threw the body of his killer.
Ahill returned to his tent and long mourned his friend, not listening to drawings.
The gods in his heavenly dwelling were also observed for this heartbreaking stage, and Jupiter sent Irida to Fetide, so that she told Mother Achilla to hurry to her son and make him give him the body of Hector killed by a hospitable family. Jupiter also ordered Mercury to imperceptibly lead to Tent Achille Priama, so that he took the casual body of the Son and took it home. Fetis, appearing in the Tent of Achilla, handed him the order of Jupiter:
Listen to the word, I will announce it from Zeus:(Homer)
Gods, he rivers, are preparing for you; He, Lord,
More all about it, that you, in the frenza of anger
Hector near ships not accepting ransom, hold.
Issue it, Achilles, and for the body of the reaches.
Mercury appeared to Priam, spent him through the camp of the Greeks in the tent of Achille, where the elderly king fell into his feet of the hero and began to begging him to give him the body of his son, promising a rich ransom for him.
Achilles, touched by grief old man, could not refuse and gave the Hector's body, offering to conclude a truce for fourteen days so that both parties could bury their heroes with honor. Iliad ends with the description of the Hector's funeral.
Two weeks later, the war resumed. The arons of the Trojans arrived at the Trojans, headed by Queen Pentseyleia. However, she died in the very first battle, the hands of Achilla.
But he was destined to die in the heyday of youth and beauty, because the goddes of fate almost finished the spinning of his life. In one of the skits, pursuing the Trojans, the son of Fetyda remarked Polyken, the daughter of Priama, and was struck by her maiden beauty. He tried to convince both sides to stop the war, hoping after the conclusion of the world to receive her consent to marriage.
The death of Achilla
However, all his efforts to conclude the world did not lead to anything. Nevertheless, he achieved the consent of the Priama on his engagement with the polyken, with the condition that they would marry as soon as the war is over. The engagement ceremony took place behind the walls of the city, and when Achille was going to part with his challenged, Paris covered in the back and let the poisoned arrow in the heel of the hero. Thus died Ahill, who killed in the battles of so many brave warriors.
So Achilles, thickened very many,(OU Holmes)
Died from the wound in the heel.
Ulysses and Ajax started a hot dispute for the possession of his armor, forged the volcano himself. The armor went to Ulysses, and Ajax was so upset that he lost the mind and killed himself. Polyxena, unable to survive the death of the groom, committed suicide on his majestic tomb, built on the plain, who eased at the walls of Troy. According to another version, Polyxena pulled out of the hands of Hugeba and sacrificed his son Pyrre sacrificed on the grave of Achilla.
PhyloTet.
Oracle, for so long silent, the pre week is that the Tro will not be able to take the Hercules without the poisoned arrivals, which he left Phylotte. Ten years ago, this hero, together with all, went under the walls of the Troy, but, having received a wound in his leg, was left on Lemnos Island. The wound was very annoyed by him and looked so disgusting that no one wanted to endure the presence of phyloctite on the ship.
Since then, ten long years has passed, and although a special squad went to find a special detachment, it was very few hopes. Nevertheless, when the Greeks reached the cave, where they left their comrade, then, to their amazement, they saw that he was alive, although his wound did not heal. He existed that he killed the game, which approached him to the distance of an elongated hand.
He himself a neighbor, the feet devoid, was.(Sofokl (Per. F. Zelinsky))
He neighbors did not lead a friend in distress,
In the com, the response would find a wounded moan wound
Wounds ablimate
Who would blood pressure, hot jet
Beating out of the blurred lived
Intenteed leg, good potion
Despicable power soared, raising him
From the womb of the most important land.
He was offended by the fact that he was mercilessly thrown in the cave to the right death, Philoktt did not want to succumb to any persuasion to go under the walls of Troy, while he didn't dream of Hercules and did not tell me without delay to go there, for Mahar's son, the son of the Eskulap, was waiting for him Heal his wound.
Death of Paris
The dream was proper. Philoktt, healing from the wound, joined the Greek army and caused a large stir in the camp of the enemy with his poisoned arrows. One of these arrows fell into Paris, the poison penetrated into the blood, causing him incredible suffering. Paris remembered his first love, Nimifa Enon, who knew how to heal any wounds and illnesses. Once she told him that if he was wounded, he would have to immediately send it. Paris ordered to lead to him Enon, but she, offended by the fact that he threw it for the sake of Elena and did not remember her existence, until he came into this need, refused to help him, and Paris died in terrible flour. Untime, he died, Enon regretted his cruel decision and, when the flame of the funeral bonfire embraced his body, rushed into the fire and burned down, reaching his incorrect beloved.
Two Priam Son has already died, but Troy still resisted. Now the oracle predicted the Greeks that it would not be able to master until Palladium - the Sacred Statue of Minerva, who, as they said, fell right from the sky, will stand in the city temple. Then Ulysses and Diomed, dressed, at night they entered the city and after many adventures brought a precious statue into the Greek camp.
Wooden horse
Soldiers and leaders who are tired of the tightened war, gladly welcomed the offer of Ulysses to take the city with cunning. They secretly built a colossal wooden horse, whose whale could accommodate a large squad. The main army, allegedly lost hope to master the city, plunged on the ships, leaving on the spot of his camp of this horse. There were rumors everywhere that this horse is a victim Neptune. Sly Slane Synonyn remained to convince the Trojans to enter the horse in the city and put it on the square as a monument to the courage of citizens.
By the undisguised joy of the Trojans, the Greek fleet sailed. But they did not know that the ships were not far away - they hid behind the island of Teenos and began to wait. All the inhabitants of Troy came out of the city, surrounded the horse and began to ask Synonyon why he remained. The slave began to complain about the Greeks and advised the Trojans to preserve the victim of the Greeks Neptune in his city.
Myth about Laocoon
The Trojans took this advice with a flavor, but Laocoon, Priest Neptune, began to convince them not to touch the horse, predicted that he would bring them innumerable troubles.
Missed screaming loudly: "Unfortunate! All you are crazy!(Vergilius. Aneida (per. S. Osherov))
Do you believe that the enemies sailed? What to be without cheating
Can Danai Dara? Are you ulius do not know what?
Either the ahaeis inside the boards were hidden by these
Either enemies erected the bulk of this so that our
Walls to threaten, watch at home and penetrate into the city.
Tevkras, do not believe the horse; Cheating in it some lighter!
Whatever he was, the gifts of the delights bring. "
But the townspeople did not want to listen to him, they dragged a huge horse in the city, disassembled part of the wall for this. Laocoon hurried to the shore to bring victims to the gods. He stood at an improvised altar. And on both sides, there were two of his son, who helped him, how suddenly the two giant snakes crawled out of the sea, wrapped the body of the priest and his children and strangled them.
Snakes right(Vergil)
To Lanocoont crawl and two sons it before
In the terrible arms squeezing, thin members will deteriorate,
Poor flesh is tormented, ulcers, burst with teeth.
To her father hurries to help, shook with a spear, -
Gada enough of him and the huge rings knit
Twice body body and twice the throat twice
And over his head towering the scaly neck.
He tries to break the nodes of live hands,
Poison and black blood dressing priests pours,
A scream that twists in a shiver, upgrade unhappy stars.
The witnesses covered by the horror of this scene decided that this is the sign of the gods that had punished Laocoon for not wanting to enter the city of a wooden horse and even dared to hit him with a spear to make sure that he was empty inside and in it could easily hide an enemy squad. Since then, the struggle of Laocoon with snakes has become a favorite theme of poets, artists and sculptors.
Drop Troy
Meanwhile, the fleet of the Greeks was standing at the island of Tenedos. When night came, the ships returned to where the camp was located for ten years, and the warriors were linked to the city of Syno, who released the detachment there from the horse. Castled by surprise, the guards of the city tried to give the Greeks, but it was too late. The enemies burst into houses and palaces, robbed, killed and burned everything around.
Passed years of gloomy siege,(Lewis Morris)
And now the midnight pogrom has come.
Everything burned, and in the glow of fire
I saw how the palaces collapsed,
And the crowds of the Greeks were joined in the city
Through breaks in the walls, and their swords
Entered the flesh of the unfortunate citizens.
The death and royal family did not avoid. Aged admission, in front of whom the Greeks killed his last son, also gained eternal peace.
Taking Troy, the Greeks immediately went home, loading the ships of the ships with a bad good and slaves. But their way back was not the lungs. Many warriors who survived in the battles died in the sea underground or died shortly after returning home.
Menelai and his wife Elena, who, despite the ten years, retained her young beauty, were attributed to the winds to the shores of Egypt. These winds gods sent them to the punishment for the fact that they forgot to bring them those who rely on the customs of the victim. Menelai appealed for advice to the beat, who suggested him how to be melted the gods and make them send back the wind.
As for Agamemnon, the leader of the Greeks, then, returning to Argos, he was killed by his wife Cliudernone and her lover Egisf.
Egisf is unsuitable, the death of my thirst,(Homer)
With my wife, my cunningly conspired
And, inviting me to the Pier in his house,
Dagger shaon.
After that, in the fatal fear that Orest, the son of Agamemnon, will want to take revenge on his father's death, Egisf decided to kill and Ores, but Electra, the sister of the young man, having learned about it, helped him run. Orest hit the stain, the king of Kyda, who loved him like his native son. And the son of King, Pill, became his best friend. Their devotion of each other entered the saying in many nations.
Electra did not forget the insidious killing of his father, although since then has passed ten years. When Orest Mature, she began to begging him to return and punish those who committed this crime. Orest arrived, killed Egisfa and Cleaner, but, horrifying what he did, fled. He was chased by Fuury and Nemesis, the Goddess of Retribution, which were sent by the gods to the punishment for making the work of revenge into his hands.
Arriving in Delphi, Orest asked the Council from Oracle and found out that the gods would forgive him his crime if he brings the statue of Diana from Tavrida. Young Tsarevich hurried there, accompanied by the faithful sowing, which never left his friend. In the temple, Orest found his sister with the infigration, which everyone considered the dead long. She helped him to get a statue and returned to his native country together with his brother, after which Nemesis left him alone.
Achilles (Achilles), Greek. - The son of the Fty king Pelia and the marine goddess Fetyda, the greatest Achaean hero in the Trojan War.
None of the hundred thousand people who came under the high walls of Troy could not be compared with him by force, courage, dexterity, speed, as well as a direct character and courageous beauty. Achilla had everything that he decorates a man, only one fate refused him - in happiness.
Achille was born from marriage, which was imposed on his mother. Initially, Zeus himself took care of her, but then he learned Prometheus from Titan, that, according to the prophecy, the son of Fetyda will surpass his father - and then, protecting his interests, Zeus gave her for the mortal, for Pele. When her son was born, she plunged him in the waters of styx, the underground river in the kingdom of the dead, and all his body (with the exception of the heel, for which she kept her son) was covered with an invisible shell. But, obviously, it is already the legends of later origin, since Homer did not know anything about it. He told only that Fetida rubbed Achille Ambrosia and ordered him over fire so that he became invulnerable and immortal. But one day she was taken by this occupation. Seeing his son on fire, he was frightened, decided that Fetis wants to kill Achilla, and rushed to her with a sword. The poor goddess was not before the explanation, she barely had time to hide in the sea depths and no longer returned to Pele. The abandoned son of the peel found the teacher. At first they were a wise old man of Phoenix, then Centaur Chiron, who fed it with bear brains and fried lions. Such a power and education regimen clearly walked Achilla for the benefit of: he killed a ten-year-old boy with bare hands of wild boar and caught up with a reindeer run. Soon he learned everything that he had relied on the hero of that time: to behave like a man, to own weapons, treat wounds, play on Lira and sing.
"Achilles between Licked Daughters", Gerard de Lesshes (Many paintings of different artists with Achille Achilles collected on).
Fetite was proclaimed that her son would be set in front of the choice: to live for a long time, but without glory or live a short but glorious age. Although she wished him fame, but as a mother, naturally, preferred a long life. Having learned that the Ahasey kings are preparing for war with Troy, she covered Achille on the island of Skiros at the Tsar Licken, where he had to live in women's clothing among royal daughters. But Agamemenon, with the help of the son of Kalkhanta, found out his seat and sent Odyssey and Diomeda behind him. Changed by merchants, both kings penetrated the palace and laid out their goods before the royal daughters. Among the expensive fabrics, jewels and other products, to which women have an impact of centuries, as if the sword was accidentally. And when the satellite satellites Odyssey and Diomeda published the satellites of Odyssey and the weapons were aroused, all the girls in fear ran away - and only one hand stretched to the sword. So Achille betrayed himself and promised to join the Ahase tska. He did not hold him on the skyrosis neither the daughter of Likomed Deidamia, waiting for his son, nor the prospect of a long and happy rule in his homeland. Instead of Fty, he chose fame.
In the harbor of Avlida, where the Ahasey army focused on, Achill brought five thousand husbands, the squad of the squad was the brave Mimdonian. His father's father, because of the old years, could not participate in the campaign, so he gave him his armor, a huge spear from a solid ash and a combat chariot harvested by immortal horses. These were the wedding gifts received by Pellem from the gods when he married a fetide, and Achilles managed to use them. For nine years, he fought under Troray, took twenty-three cities in its surroundings, brought horror on the Trojans with one appearance. All the aheitsa, from the leaders to the last ordinary warrior, saw in him the most brave, skillful and lucky warrior - everything except the commander-in-chief, Agamemnon.
He was a powerful king and a good warrior, but to accept the fact that his subordinate surpasses his merit and popularity - for this Agamemnon lack noble. He hid his dislike for a long time, but one day he could not resist. And this led to the distribution, which almost destroyed all the Ahasey army.
This happened for the tenth year of the war, when deep discontent and disappointment reigned in the Ahase camp. Warriors dreamed of returning home, and the commander lost hope to acquire Glory and prey with Troy. Achilles went with his Mimmidonians to the next kingdom to supply the army to the province and raise her spirit with the help of rich production. Among the prisoners of the prisoners were the daughter of Christ, Apollo Priest, which in the deregister of the prey went to Agamemnon. Achill had nothing against, because she did not interest him; He loved the excellent Briceid, captured during one of the previous expeditions. However, soon Christ appeared in the camp of the Ahetsev; He wished the warriors of the ambulance and asked Agamemnon to return him to his daughter for a rich ransom. Ahetans This proposal arranged, but Agamemenon was against: Him, they say, the girl likes and he will not give it for anything, but Christ, they say, let him come from where he came from. Then the priest appealed to his God Apollo with plenty to take revenge on him. Apollo won his Moluba, descended from Olympus and began to smile from his silver onion to smash on the Greek camp with a marine ulcer. Soldiers died, but Agamemnon did not try to die the angry God - and then Achille decided to intervene. He convened a collection of warriors to decide what to do. This once again hurt the pride of Agamemnon, and he decided to take revenge. When the prisoner Calchant announced the army that for reconciliation with Apollo, it is necessary to return His daughter to Christ (but now without any redemption, and even bring apologies), Agamemnon cut him off and embalted himself on Achilla, who stood up for the priest. After unheard of insults, Achilles, Agamemenon stated that in the interests of the army refuses Chriside, but it will take a different one from someone from the commander - and chose Brisadis, the beloved Achilla.
Frame from the film "Troy" 2004. In the role of Achilles - Actor Brad Pitt.
As a disciplined soldier, Achille obeyed the decision of the commander, but also made his conclusions from it. He swore that he would not participate in battles, while Agamemenon would not ask him for forgiveness and would not restore his recharged honor. Then he retired to the sea coast, called his mother from deep waters and asked her a word for him in front of Zeus: Let the Almighty helps the Trojans to press the Ahasey army so that Agamemenon realize that he could not do without Achilla, and came to him with apologies. about help.
Fetis gave Zeus the request of the Son, and he could not refuse her. He forbade the rest of the gods to interfere in the war, and he himself prompted the leader of the Hector Trojans to take advantage of the lack of Achille and push the ahetsev to the very sea. At the same time, he laughed in Agamemnon a deceiving dream, who seduced him to go to the offensive, despite the exit of Achille from the game. The aheitsy fought courageously, but were forced to retreat. The Trojans in the evening after the battle did not even returned to the protection of urban walls, and settled for the night right in front of the Ahase camp, so that with the arrival of the day with one powerful blow to destroy it. Seeing that the case is bad, Agamemenon sent to inform Achillu, that he takes his words back, Returns him the beloved and put on her seven maids with rich gifts to her - only Ahill changed the anger to mercy and again took up his weapons. This time, Achilles went too far in his anger: he rejected Agamemnon's proposal and stated that he would not enter into battle until Hector would attack him directly on his camp; However, before that, it will not happen, since he, Achille, will soon return with his army in his native fthia.
The disaster seemed inevitable: in the morning attack, the Trojans broke through the ranks of the Ahetsev, broke the wall that defended the camp, and Hector had already gathered to wait for the ships to deprive the Greeks the possibility of flight. At this moment, Patrole came to Achillu, and asked for permission to put on the armor of Achilla and help the friends-aheitsa, who fell into trouble. Patrole counted that the Trojans will accept him for Achilla Yves fear to retreat. At first, Achilles hesitated, but, seeing that Hector was already setting in line with one of the Greek ships, immediately fulfilled the Patrox request; In addition to the armor, he gave him all his army. Patrolers rushed into battle, and his cunning was successful: thinking that in front of them Achilles, the Trojans were taken away. Patrolery redeemed the fire, pushed the Trojans to the city walls, but then was identified, since he did not decide to take a heavy spear of Achilla. Then the Trojans dare to enter into battle with him: the Kopean Evforba with Apollo was fatally injected by Patrole, and then Hector pierced him with a spear.
"Achilles near the walls of Troy", Jean Auguste Dominic Engr, 1801
The message about the death of a friend was struck by Achilla and injected him into the sorrow. Forgetting about your resentment, he wanted to rush into battle to take revenge on the cartridge, but his armor had already gotten hectober. At the request of Fetyda, the god gunsmith himself Hephaesta made him new ones for one night. Above the corpse of Patrole Ahill swore to revenge the hector. He reconciled with Agamemnon, which in front of the whole army admitted his guilt and returned to him Brispeut, and in the first battle after the death of the Patrole killed Hector.
It was a merciless fight: Ahill was looking for a heaker in the ranks of the Trojans and took three times with him to battle, but every time hekerlon saved Apollo, the faithful protector of Troy. Having come into rage, Achilly turned against all the Trojan army, killed many Trojans and their allies, and the rest were hidden behind the walls of the city. When for the last of the fugitives, a huge skier gate closed, only Hector remained before them. In order to save the honor of the troops and their own, he called Achilla to the duel. Throwing a challenge, he suggested that the winner would give the body defeated him to his friends so that those worthy of buried him. But Ahill accepted only the challenge, disagreering from any conditions, and rushed to the enemy, as a lion on a defenseless sacrifice. Despite all his courage, Hector frightened and rushed into flight. He survived the high walls of the Troy three times, saving his life, but finally he stopped at the admission of Athena, who desired the death of the Trojans, crossed the weapon with Achille. In a fight, it's not about life, but to death, which is in amazement even the gods, Hector Pal, pierced by a spear of Achilla.
Achilles with hector's body
The triumphant Achille tied the body of the hector to his battle chariot and trampled the walls three times, and then driving it into his camp to pay the Ahasey Psam. However, the gods were not allowed to desecrate the body of the fallen hero, and Zeus himself ordered Fetite to form Achilla. When, under the cover of the night, the drains of the actor snuck into the Camp of Achilla to redeem the body of the son, Achilles, touched by the grief of the old man, voluntarily returned to him the Hector's corpse. He even suspended military actions for twelve days so that the Trojans could solemnly bury their leader. Thus, Achill won not only his opponent, but also his own passion, proving it that he is a genuine hero, moreover, that he is a man.
"Priam, asking Hector's body from Achilles," Alexander Ivanov, 1821
Achillu was not destined to witness the fall of Troy: soon he was waiting for death. He still managed to defeat the Penfissile, who led his female army to the rescue of three, and then won the new leader of the Trojan troops in the duel - Tsar Memnon from distant Ethiopia. But when after this victory, he decided to break into the city through a skier gate, he got up on his way. Achille told him to leave the road, threatening to pierce him with his spear. Apollo obeyed, but only to revenge immediately for this insult. Rising to the city wall, he ordered Paris to send an arrow to Achilla. Paris willingly obeyed, and the arrow, whose flight directed Apollo, fell into the heap of Achilla, not protected by armor.
The land and cracked the urban wall trembled from the fall of Achilla. However, he immediately rose and pulled out the fatal arrow from the spot. At the same time, the hooks of the tip pulled out a large piece of meat, the veins broke out, and blood rushed from the wound. Seeing that the strength of blood and life leave him, he cried apollo and three and empty the spirit.
"Hiron, Fetid and the deceased Achill", Pompeo Batoni, 1770
Achille's body boiled with a cruel singer. Finally, the Ahaeis snatched his body from the hands of the Trojans, brought to their camp and with the honors betrayed fire on a high funeral fire, which god Hephaest himself. Then the aschilla was mixed with the ashes of Patrole and over their common grave poured a tall mound from clay so that he would argue with the glory of both heroes.
According to many researchers of ancient legends, Achilles is the most magnificent image of all created by Greek literature. And since these creations of Homer are the peaks of Greek literature, which until now they were surpassed in the epic poetry of any other people, Achilla can be safely attributed to one of the most magnificent images in the whole world literature. Therefore, it is clear that none of the picturesque or sculptural images of Achilla can withstand comparisons with a literary way.
Apparently, the ancient artists gave themselves a report in this limitations of their capabilities: they portrayed Achilla with some kind of mobility, and the sculptors and at all cost him the side. But in the Vazopisi, about four hundred images of Achille was preserved. The most famous "Achille" on Attic Amphore is gray. 5 V. BC e. (Rome, Vatican museums), "Achilles plays with Ajax in the bone" (only 84 copies, including an execia vase, approx. 530 - also in Vatican museums), "Achille bandages wounded cartridge" (Attic bowl OK. 490 BC . E., the only specimen - in state museums in Berlin). Often, Achille's fights with Hector, Memnon, Penfissile, and other plots were also depicted. In the National Museum in Naples, Puppese frescoes "Centaur Chiron teaches Achilla to play on Lira,", "Odyssey identifies Achilla among the Legged daughters, and others.
Of the major artists of the new time, one of the first risked to portray Achilla P. P. Rubens ("Ahill kills hecutors", approx. 1610). We also call D. Tenirst Jr. ("Achilles and Daughters Licked"), F. Gerar ("Fetida brings Achillu Armor) and E. Delacroa (" Education of Achilla ", National Gallery in Prague).
From the playwrights of the New Time to the image of Achille, Cornelel ("Achille", 1673), in 20 century. - S. Vyspyansky ("Achilleida", 1903), Achilles Süuenes ("Achille-Avenger", 1922), M. Makovich ("Heritage Achilla"). Gendel brought to the stage of Achilla in the opera "Deidamia" (1741), Kerubini - in the ballet "Ahill on Skiros" (1804). Only two poets tried to create a "missing link" between "Ilia" and "Odyssey": the deposits (1 century n. Er) and Goethe was taken for the epic poem "Achilleida", but neither the other did not bring the case to the end.
Character of heroic legends of the ancient Greeks. The brave of heroes who went hike against Troy under the leadership of the Mysensky king. Son of Pelia and, marine nymphs. Mentioned in the epic poem "Iliad".
History of origin
The researchers nominate the theory that Initially in the mythology of the ancient Greeks, Achilles was considered a demon of the afterlife. Other ancient Greek heroes, for example, also treated this category of characters. Defending this point of view, the Hommel researcher refers to the early-class Greek texts, where Achilles are already turned into an epic hero, but still demonstrates features characteristic of the demons of the afterlime world.
Myths and legends
Like other Greek heroes, Achilles was born from marriage mortal and goddess. Such characters in ancient Greek mythology have opportunities exceeding human, huge physical strength, but are not endowed with immortality, like the gods. The vocation of the hero is to bear justice to people and perform the will of the gods. And in the performance of feats, the heroes often help divine parents.
The mother of Achilles, the nymph Fetis, wanted to make his son immortal. For this, Fetida for different versions, I put a baby in a blacksmith furnace of God, then immersed in the fire, then in the water styx - the rivers of the kingdom of the dead. In all cases, the mother kept his baby during the dipping, so the heel remained the only vulnerable place of the hero. Later, Trojan killed Achilles, hitting this arrow into the heel.
As a child, the hero was a different name, but after one case, when he burned his lips with fire, he got the name of Achilles, which means "benty". Hero on the slopes of Mount Pelion brought up Centaur Chiron. Centaur trained Achilles by the art of hellari. The hero found some grass, with which he could cure wounds.
Later, Achilles joined the campaign of the Greeks against Troy. Tsar Itataki bowed to this hero. Achilles performed heading fifth ships. Together with the hero went to the campaign - a friend of childhood, whom some authors call the Achilles lover.
One of the myths says that the mother of Achilles, Nymph Fetis, wanted to protect the Son from participating in the fatal war. For this, the Nymph hid the young man on the island of Skiros, at the local king of Lick. Achilles dressed in women's clothing, and in such a form hero was hiding among the royal daughters.
Clearny Odyssey arrived there, attached by the merchant, and decorated the decorations before the girls, and together with the ribbons, lay and the weapons. Then the sought-to-odded people raised the noise and began to publish combat clichues. Achilles grabbed the weapon and thus gave himself among the maidens.
After this exposure, the hero had to go under Troy. When the campaign began, Achilles was only fifteen years. The first shield for the hero was formed by God Hama himself.
Trojan war lasted 20 years. The siege of the city was long, and during this time the hero managed to make many raids on neighboring cities. There were already the tenth year of the siege, when Achilles captured the wonderful Trojan Breech. The man quarreled because of her with Agamemnon. The Mycena King demanded to give him Brispe. In response, Achilles was angry and refused to participate in battles.
The Greeks began to play and began to ask the hero to return to battle, but it did not help. When the Trojans, headed by Hector invaded the Greek camp, still angry Achilles did not enter the battle himself, but allowed the Patrole to help the Greeks along with the detachment. So that the enemies be afraid, Achilles ordered the Patrole to wear it, Achilles, armor. The Trojan Hero Hector killed Patrole and took the armor of Achilles herself like a trophy.
Only after that, Achilles appeared on the battlefield by his own person. Having freezing the hero, the Trojans went to escape. On the next morning, God Hephaesta forged the hero of new armor, and Achilles rushed into battle, grief thirst for meal. The hero was able to discard the Trojans to the city gate, and at the same time he killed hepotor and dragged the corpse to the Greek camp. After the magnificent TRISS in the cartridge, the hero returned the body of hector to the Trojans for a big redemption.
Achilles fell in a fight at the gate of the city, which combed the archer to Paris, who led himself. The arrows hit Achilles to the only vulnerable place - the heel. According to another version, Apollo himself took the appearance of Paris to fight the hero. On this history of the life of the hero ended.
Achilles had no wife, but there were several lovers, among whom Deidamia, the daughter of Tsar Licken. From her the hero was born her son in neopochem.
Greek bas-reliefs depict Achilles as a muscular young man with curly hair. The hero can be seen on the vases where one is depicted in armor.
Shielding
In 2004, the adventure fighter "Troy" was published based on the poem of Homer "Iliad". The role of Achilles in this film played an actor.
In the film, Achilles helps the Michasen king Agamemnon to subordinate to the city of Greece. Agamemnon dreams of destroying the recalcitrant Troy, and here the case is converted. U, Brother King, Trojan Paris stole his wife, and Melai is to Agamemnon, demanding revenge.
To seduce Achilla to go to fight under Troy, a cunning odyssey comes to the hero, the king of Ithaca. And the hero on his ship joins the army of the Greeks, although his own mother predicted Achilles death under the walls of Troy.
The warriors of the Achilles are first planted on the Trojan coast and enter into battle, to destroy the detachment of Trojan warriors. Tsar Agamemenon, however, publicly insulted Achilles, when he saw that the hero was released by Hector, the leader of the Trojan squad, not wishing to join him.
After this incident, Achilles and his people do not enter the battle along with the rest of the Greeks, but only observe the battle by side. Without Achilles, the Greeks are unable to defeat the Trojans in battle, and in negotiations they refuse to accept the conditions of Agamemnon. Trojan Hector noble refuses to finish defeated Greeks and concludes with those truce. Achilles is about to return home and there to have a family and to heal peacefully.
Frame from the movie "Troy" Later, the Trojans attack the Greeks under the cover of the night, and the detachment of Achilles also goes into battle, thinking that the leader with them. It turns out, however, that this twist Achilles Patrole took into battle in the Achilles helmet, so that at night and their own, and the enemies accepted that Achilles. Hector wins Patrole in battle and kills.
After that, Achilles plans change. Instead of sailing home, the hero goes to the walls of the Troy and causes the heaker. After winning this in the duel, Achilles goes to the camp of the Greeks, and the Hector's body, tied behind his feet, drags over the chariot.
The father of Hector Tsar begged to the Greek camp and begging Achilla to give the body of the Son. Achill agrees to this. Later, when the Troy is already captured, Achilles dares around the city in search of the Truma Trojan, the daughter of Priama, in which the hero is in love. Achilles saves the beloved from his own compatriots, but at this time of the Achilles himself shoots a Trojan Paris from Luka.
The plot of "Iliad" in the film is very distorted. There are no some characters, for example, the Trojan propheted Kassandra and Priest, who tried to warn compatriots. Costumes of the Greeks are not historical, as well as the technique of combat heroes.
Many heroes are not dying there and not so. For example, Tsar Agamemnon, Homer killed his own wrong wife after returning from under Troy. In the film, Agamemnon stabbed Brispeid's knife at a time when the Greeks robbed Troy.
The Achilles himself in "Iliad" does not run through the dysfunctional city in search of the maiden and does not die in badly on a neat lawn. Homer Paris struck Achilles an arrow at the gate of the city, and a terrible battle flashed behind the body of the hero. The Greeks did not want to leave the body of the hero to the enemies on the crop, and the real dump took around the Achilles, while the dead hero did not bring from the battlefield.
In 2003, a two-sterlene film "Elena Troyanskaya" came out in the United States, also based on Iliad, where the role of Achilles played actor Joe Montana. Here Achilles is a secondary character, which appears in the scene of contractions with the Hector and nails that spear to the post. Later, Achilles attacks Paris, but he fights Achilles to the heel shots.
In 1997, the director took a two-particle film "Odyssey" - a free interpretation of the Homeric Poem of the same name, where it is about the return of King Ithaca home after the Trojan war. The secondary role of Achilles here is playing Richard Truste.
Achilles also appeared in the TV series "Doctor Who", in a series called "Creators of myths", which came out in the fall of 1965. Dr. Tardis ship is materialized under Troy exactly at the moment when Achilles fights with Hector. Trojan is getting distracted, and Achilles kills him, and the doctor who came out of Tardis takes him for the Supreme God, who attacked the aforementioned old man.
Frame from the series "Doctor Who" Achilles calls imaginary Zeus to go to the Greek camp. There, Tsar Agamemenon demands that God helped Grekam against the Trojans, and the cunning oddyssey believes that there is no God, but a Trojan spy. The role of Achilles here is performed by actor Kanvan Kendall.

Shield Achilla 
The Greeks were erected by Achilles by Mausoleum on the shore of Gellespont, and here, in order to clean the shadow of the hero, they brought him to the victim to Polyken. For the armor of Achilles, by the story of Homer, Ajax Telavonide and Odyssey Laerertid argued. Agamemenon awarded them the last. In the "Odysse", Achilles dwells in the underground kingdom, where he meets Odyssey. Achilles is buried in Golden Amfor (Homer), which Dionysus presented a fetide (lycophon, stashihor).
But already "Ethiopide", one of the epic epic cycles, tells that Fetida led his son from a burning fire and moved him to the island of Levka (name. Snake Island at the mouth of Istra Danube), where he continues to live in the society of other valued heroes and heroines . This island served as the center of the Cult of Achille, as well as Kurgan, who snaps on the Siggee Hill in front of the Troy and still hears the Tomb of Achilla. The sanctuary and a monument of Achilla, as well as the monuments of the Patrole and Antelch were at Cape Syagi. His temples were still in Elide, Sparta and other places.
Philostrat (born in 170) in the composition "On the heroes" (215) leads a dialogue between the Phoenician merchant and the grapeter, telling about the events on the Snake Island. With the completion of the Trojan war, Achilles and Elena entered into marriage after death (the marriage of the brave itself with the most beautiful) and live on the White Island (O-in Levka) at the mouth of the Danube on Ponte Evksinsky. Once the merchant came to the island of the merchant came Achilles and asked to buy for him a three-girl-slave, pointing how to find it. The merchant fulfilled the order and delivered the girl to the island, but he did not have time to go far away from the shore, as he and his companions heard wild cries of the unfortunate girl: Ahill ripped it into parts - she, it turns out, was the last of the descendants of the royal kind of priama. Screams of the unfortunate fly to the ears of the merchant and its satellites. The role of the White Island owner, executed by Achille, becomes explained in the light of the article H. Hommel, which showed that even in the VII century. BC e. This character, which has long turned into an epic hero, still performed in his primordial function of one of the postal demons.
Referred to as "reigning over Scythians." Song about him sings the demo. Three appeared the ghost of Achille, hunting for animals.

Statues of naked efebov with spears were called Achilles.
The origin of the image
There is a hypothesis that, initially in Greek mythology, Achille was one of the demons of the afterlife (as other heroes belong to what other heroes were - for example, Hercules). The assumption of the Divine nature of Achilla expressed H. Hommel in his article. It shows the material of Greek early classical texts, which even in the VII century. BC e. This character, which has long turned into an epic hero, still performed in his primordial function of one of the postal demons. The publication of Hommel caused an active discussion until completed.

art
The plastic art of antiquity has repeatedly reproduced the image of the Achilles. Its image reached us on many vases, bas-reliefs with separate scenes or a whole near them, also on the fronton group of the egina (stored in Munich, see Eginition art), but there is no statue or bust that could be attributed to it with certainty.
One of the most wonderful busts of Achilles is stored in St. Petersburg, in the Hermitage. Sad and together indignant head is crowned with a helmet, which ends with the back of the ridge, reinforced on the spin of the Sphinx; Behind this comb is in a long tail. On both sides of the crest is stupid in a flat relief of the vulture, their palm is separated. Front outlook of the bleach of the helmet, ending on both sides of curls, is also decorated with a palm one; On both sides of it, a pair of perekoid fine-thyed dogs with long pressed ears, in collars (apparently a couple of hunting dogs, sniffing land). The facial expression resembles a bust stored in Munich. It must be assumed that the point was captured here when he was already put on the hero of armor, composed by Hephaeste, and here the face was already caught up with anger, thirst for the gym, but the sadness was still trembling on her lips, like an outbill inner heartguard. This bust applies to the II century I century. e. to the era of Adrian, but his idea is too deep for this era, poor creative thought, and therefore it remains only to assume that this head, like Munich, is imitation, whose original could be created not later than the Praxitor, that is, no later than IV-III in. BC e.

Indeed, Enai had other exploits, in other places of the ancient world ... (Perhaps about the adventures of Eney I will write a separate cycle).
Achilles in the frenza continued his march towards three, crossed the River Scanander and captured the numerous Trojans: Several prisoners he ruthlessly sacrificed next to the grave of the Patrole.
The annoyed river god, in the river whose body was dropped by the victims, decided to punish Achilla. The river left the shores and rushed to the hero, ready to absorb him. However, hefest was reacting, forced to return the water in their bed. Achille continued the bloody path to the goal of the city, trying to cut the enemies from their native walls.
Then, Apollo intervened in the battle, "Hard" for the Trojans, and Achilles lost the ability to orientation. The remaining Trojans were able to safely return to themselves to the city, and when Achill came to himself, he found that the enemies were already locked in Troy. Only one warrior remained on the battlefield, ready to fight with Achille. They were Hector Which despite the prayers of his father, Priama, called from the fortress walls to escape by flight, stood face to face with a fierce Achille.
